Nestled in the Piedmont area of South Carolina, you will find Prince of Peace Catholic Church. Founded in 1974, the parish has grown and changed along with the Upstate. Today our community includes almost 1,900 families hailing for every region of the country and many nations of the world. We are very proud of the ethnic and cultural blend that gives us our unique "catholic" identity. If you looking for a place to grow and
serve, then Prince of Peace is the place for you. Our parish
school (grades
K-5) opened in 2003. In addition, our parish has over 60 active
ministries,
with opportunities for every age and life
situation. In addition to
religious
education,
music
and traditional church offerings, we
can
boast a
child
development center, an active seniors
group, a youth ministry, regular athletic
activities, and more. Our parishioners also serve the larger community
through a variety of
outreach activities
and through the regular allotment of 10% of
our weekly collection to local and international
charities. On September 21, 2003 we dedicated our new church building. Our church seats 1,300, to accommodate our ever-growing parish family (view photos of the new church). Whenever you are in the Greenville area, we warmly invite you to come and pray with us. If the Greenville area is your home, we hope you will consider becoming part of our parish family. New members are always welcome for we recognize that our strength is in our diversity. Perhaps our mission statement sums it up best: Prince of Peace
Catholic Church is a welcoming community rooted in the Gospel Mission of Jesus
Christ. Strengthened through prayer
and worship, we strive to be a family sharing our time, talent and treasure in
Christian stewardship. We are a
spiritual center for all people, through every stage of life, with ministries of
service to those in need.
